@user-379506069-223995489: Thank you so much! Glad you liked this "improv". I am thinking of making some more :)

Very nice lead added to the major blues !!

Love the sweet mellow groove. This track makes me feel refreshed. Nicely done.

This is my project on instrumental guitar/harp based tracks.
Inspired by the adventure that it is to become a father.
What do you think about when you listen to it?

Here is my first improvisation over "I got a major blues".

You can play to the backing track also found here:

Before the Ice (the Stockholm Sessions)

I got a major blues (improv #1)

ODEGARD is a Danish/Norwegian singer-songwriter currently based in Denmark. Folk/Rock/Alternative. Gigs in Sweden, Iceland, Germany and Denmark. This is a Lo-Fi preview of "White Walls" (2015) written in Finland/Sweden.

Lyrics (preview):

White wall you say.
Brings imagination to mind.
I think I know what you mean.
As I looked into your eyes.

Now would you believe?
I wrote a song for you.
You made me lose my ground.
I was unprepared.

As I hear your steps.
On the old wooden floor.
The sound is fading out.
As we're walking though the door.

Now if you feel fine.
I will feel fine too.
You say the world is small.
And we'll follow though.

Chorus:
If I had a choice.
I would stay right here.
And listen to you talk profound and wise.
If I had a choice.
I would freeze the time.
To make sure to save tonight.

White Walls (Acoustic Lo-Fi Preview)

ODEGARD is a Danish/Norwegian singer-songwriter currently based in Denmark. Folk/Rock/Alternative. Gigs in Sweden, Iceland, Germany and Denmark. This is a Lo-Fi preview of "Inner Storms" (January 2018) written in Finland.

Lyrics (preview):

All alone on the sandy shore.
Shiny stars you just can't ignore.
Sound of waves makes you fall asleep.
Thinking how could I sink so deep.

Close your eyes and dream away.
Find a place where you feel you belong.
Take my hand, I'll guide you there.
Don't be afraid, I'll stay if you want me to.

Chorus:
Fighting with your inner storms.
Don't let toxic people pull you down.
Life is short and time is fast.
Don't go waste it, let go of your broken past.

Walk upright in a steady speed.
Go ahead now find your street.
Look around maybe we will meet.
Until then do what ever you need to do.

ONE FOR THE ROAD

Too Late

Written and performed by Michelle Leverette and Bob Porri
copyright 2019 by Bob Porri and Michelle Leverette https://soundcloud.com/michelleleverettemusic

I’m a white wall
I’m a blank slate
Got no fears
No love, No hate
I need a good book
And a warm cup
Got not regrets 
Got nothing but luck

Cause It’s too late for this
Yah it’s a little too late for this

Too late to stop the dying 
Too late to dream what might be
Too late to hope for something more than we’ve seen
Too late to hold for probably
Too late to start the cryin'
Too late to wish for all the things we used to be
But it’s not too late for me

I’m crawling up 
I’m climbing out
Time to move
No time to doubt
I’m kicking up 
Dust beneath my boots
Shake it off
That’s what I do

Too late to stop the dying 
Too late to dream what might be
Too late to hope for something more than we’ve seen
Too late to hold for probably
Too late to start the cryin'
Too late to wish for all the things we used to be
But it’s not too late for me

Too late to start the crying
Too late to dream what might be
Too late to hope for something more than what we’d be

Too late to stop the dying 
Too late to dream what might be
Too late to hope for something more than we’ve seen
Too late to hold for probably
Too late to start the cryin'
Too late to wish for all the things we used to be
But it’s not too late
No, it’s not too late
For me

Too Late (with Michelle Leverette)

I am Marcus Dahlström, guitar enthusiast at night, and expert physicist at day.

All music and lyrics and are written by me. My songs are recorded on a Scarlett 2i2 in my tiny walk-in-closet! I use a Cort guitar (CEC5 NAT) and Hohner harps. The synth used on some tracks is actually my smart phone!

I hope you like the songs!
